Salute the sun
Want to energize your body and clear your mind before starting your day? Try sunrise yoga. Enjoy some invigorating sun salutations before leaving the house – look online for a routine that fits your style. Or attend a morning yoga class. Challenge yourself to enjoy a more energized and positive day.
(When logging progress for this challenge, only log as many days as you participated the activity within the 30-day timeframe.)
i have a great cd/book by anodea judith called “Sun Salutations: Yoga for Chakra Balancing” which i have not used in quite a while. I am going to start doing the yoga routine every morning.
I find that doing yoga relaxes me and keeps me in a good mood throughout the day, which I’m glad since classes and work tend to make me irritable.
Yoga helps me reduce stress, keep limber, relaxing and also helps with my fibromalgia.
I am going online to find instructions and will begin tomorrow morning! Happy sunrise…
We had a similar challenge back in February and we found a couple great links on how to do a sun salutation:

they have amazing yoga classes were I am at 8am (mon/wed/fri) . it is so relaxing and an amazing way to start your morning! most of the class is the sun salutations, which i love because it’s a relaxing way to wake up!!!
www.yoga today offers 1 hour classes 7 days a week online for free. And then there’s Inhale Yoga on the Oxygen channel. Or I just do my own thing which is Ashtanga based.
